$10-20K

Landlord

M.M., B.Y.

Tenant

M.J.C., L.A.T.

What happened

The Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy because the Tenants breached conditions of a previous LTB consent order (LTB-L-047113-25). An ex-parte eviction order was issued on August 22, 2025. The Tenants filed a motion to set aside that order, claiming financial hardship and a change in employment circumstances. The Tenants admitted to failing to pay rent as required by the previous order, prioritizing real estate licensing fees over rent payments.

The ruling

The Tenants' motion to set aside the eviction order was denied. The Adjudicator found that the Tenants had breached multiple payment plans and failed to pay any rent for several months. The stay of the previous eviction order (LTB-L-066680-25) is lifted effective October 20, 2025, allowing the Landlord to proceed with eviction. The Tenants owe approximately $15,168.00 in rent arrears.
